GDOv1-S Firmware Update Error - Failed to initialize #35

Closed thlucas1 closed 3 months ago

thlucas1 commented 3 months ago

Trying to flash the KIO Garage Door Opener (GDOv1-S, Batch 2310) with ESPHome firmware for use with Home Assistant via the web-installer: https://install.konnected.io/garage-door-opener.

It keeps receiving the following error after clicking on the "Install Konnected GDO White (GDOv1-S / GDOv2-S) for ESPHome" button:

Installation failed. Failed to initialize. Try resetting your device or holding the BOOT button while clicking INSTALL

There is no "BOOT" button on the Konnected IO GDO device. I have tried multiple times, as well as used different USB ports on my desktop computer, and also tried 2 different laptops. I also tried it with the DC power connected and using only micro USB power. When connecting to power, the blue light flashes 3 or 4 times then goes out, leaving only the green power light on.

I have also tried the "Reset Device" button on the "Logs & Console" page. Nothing shows in the log either on that page.

I know the micro USB cable is good, as I have used it to flash other types of devices (it's both a power and data type of cable).

Any recommendations?

UPDATE - I thought I was using my micro USB data cable for the firmware install, but turns out it was the micro USB power only cable.

After using the proper cable, it was literally a 2 minute install effort. I will close this issue.

Thanks - Todd
